Chapter 818: Making Up for the Dead

"Third master, do you still have to think about the use of the fleet?"

Since the emperor's royal conquest, Yang Sange was named the prince of the town, the suburbs of Beijing have regained calm, in the face of the Qing Dynasty's grandfather, Xu Ziwei's title is still the third master, the third master of the Yang family is much stronger than the imperial court's Lao Shizi does not enter the eight points of the town of the country.

Blockade of the Bohai Sea, to be honest, the Yang family really does not have such an ability now, even if ten ironclad ships are added, plus dozens of captured British and French warships, the blockade of the Bohai Sea is still a bit stretched for the Yang family.

Blockade the sea area around Yanwei, these warships are enough, but it is difficult to block the sea area of Liaodong!

"Hmmm! It's not easy to do, the chief accountant, Yan Qing, Xiucheng, what do you think? ”

At present, the number of anchor mines transported to the Bohai Sea by the Guangzhou shipyard is less than 100,000, and the output of the Guangzhou shipyard after the expansion is about 100,000 in January, and if you want to reach such a number, you will have to wait for two or three months.

100,000 anchor mines, sounds like a lot, but in the face of the vast sea, one million is not enough, and the sea blockade formed by 100,000 anchor mines, the British and French combined fleet, as long as they drop ten or eight merchant ships, can break through such a blockade line.

Although Yang Fuliang has made a move, he is not optimistic about the blockade of the Bohai Sea, whether it is Yang Fuliang, who controls the navy, or the Guangzhou Shipbuilding School.

"Third master, this matter is not impossible! If Yang Fuliang's fleet was divided into several units and cruised between Liaodong and Shandong, the fleets of Britain and France would not dare to move lightly! ”

After thinking about it, Cen Yuying gave her own statement. Do so. Or deterrence. I am not familiar with naval warfare and do not know the naval strength of the British Empire, which is probably the basis for Cen Yuying's statement.

After listening to Cen Yuying's words, Yang Meng just frowned, the words were good, but there was still a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, Cen Yuying didn't take it into account, nearly a hundred British and French warships. Blockade? It's not that easy!

"Third master, what if it's a forced landing?"

Li Xiucheng didn't say much, but he directly touched the most critical place, and it was not a bad way to subdue the British and French forces and let them take the initiative to abandon the nearly 100 warships in Bohai Bay.

Dozens of warships are nothing to Britain and France, and such conditions may be acceptable to the two countries.

"Third master, we have a deep grudge against Britain and France. I'm afraid this is very difficult to do! ”

Li Xiucheng's voice is to seek peace, and it is not impossible to seek peace in this situation now. But Britain, France and Russia are not meat heads, please go to war after that, I'm afraid it will be a problem later! Fighting snakes does not die but suffers from them, Xu Ziwei is not optimistic about the matter of peace.

"What Mr. Commander said is not bad, but now it is a temple strategy, Britain and France are not enemies that can be destroyed overnight, England is the world's first naval power, five or seven hundred warships, national war, we have no chance of winning!

Moreover, if the shipyards of the five countries in Guangzhou want to develop, they must have the support of Britain and France. ”

Xu Ziwei is good at war strategy and strategy, Cen Yuying is good at administrative and internal affairs, and Li Xiucheng, the king of the Taiping Army, is a figure who looks at all directions.

"Humph! The British and French are not dead, and now please make peace, raise tigers! ”

really involves the overall situation, Xu Ziwei, a live monkey, is really not as good as Cen Yuying and Li Xiucheng, if his equipment is enough, he will not live under Yang Meng's command.

Seeing that Li Xiucheng couldn't read a few baskets of big characters, and Xinding, who hadn't read a few books in a few books, bumped into him, Xu Ziwei's face sank, and he was not happy.

"Third master, Mr. Xu and Li's words are good, whether the war is peaceful or not, whether we say it or not, it depends on the meaning of Britain and France!"

In the past few years, Cen Yuying has also learned enough of the slippery methods of officialdom, and when he saw that Xu Ziwei, the chief of staff, had an unkind look on his face, he began to make peace with the mud.

"There are jujubes and no jujubes to hit three poles, try it first, and then talk about it if it doesn't work! Captain, you go out for a walk with me! ”

As far as the original intention is concerned, Yang Meng doesn't want to let go of a person from Britain, France and Russia, but the situation is not up to anyone, Xu Ziwei's words are good, Li Xiucheng's words are reasonable, Cen Yuying's sleek and eye-catching, the right to make a decision is ultimately on himself, for the current situation, Yang Meng can't see it clearly now, some things are not the affairs of Britain, France and Russia, how to do it, it depends on the development of the situation.

These are all things in the future for Yang Meng, but now the internal discord is something he must solve, Shi Dakai's joining, Wei Huozi and Yu Biao are not happy, Li Xiucheng's joining, Ding Taichen, Xu Ziwei, Cen Yuying's side is angry, and the contradiction between the old man and the newcomer of the Yang family is a major matter that needs to be solved urgently.

Internal discord has always been a precursor to civil strife, the army, Yang Meng can be subdued with a word, but the officialdom of the Yang family needs someone to set an example, compared with the army, the disaster on the side of officialdom is greater.

"Commander, what do you think of Li Xiucheng?"

Taking Xu Ziwei into the small garden of the Yang Mansion, Yang Meng groaned for a while and asked a question.

What kind of object is Xu Ziwei, Yang Meng knows very well, villain! He wants to deal with Li Xiucheng, there are many means, Ding Taichen and Cen Yuying, one is the iron core of the Yang family, and the other is supported by Yang Meng, Yang Meng's words are not light in their hearts, only one Xu Ziwei is the source of chaos.

"The Third Master ......"

What does Yang Sanye want to say, Xu Ziweimen Qing'er, to be honest, he is a little jealous of Li Xiucheng's ability, Li Xiucheng is also a general, kicking his nose in the face, who gave him the guts?

"Tell me about it!"

Xu Ziwei succumbed in front of him, that should be shared, Xu Ziwei had to rely on him Yang Meng to live, but this object, knocked from time to time, he was about to kick his nose in the face.

"The amount of equipment is not bad, but there are fewer books to read!"

squeezed out a sentence, and Xu Ziwei was speechless.

"Is it good for my Yang family?"

"Yes!"

"Count, Chief! Some things we have to follow the trend, and some things we have to use!

Zeng Disheng and Zuo Jigao are not easy to use. They read a lot of books. But the third master didn't dare to use it!

Yang. It's hard to say what the Yang family will look like in the future today! Today's Yang family has the final say, and it may not be necessary in the future, people rely on people to become kings! ”

Yang Meng said the truth, many officials in the Qing Dynasty are not unable to use it, but dare not use it! Zeng Disheng, Zuo Jigao, Hu Linyi, Luo Bingzhang, Shen Baozhen, Feng Guifen. Including Ye Mingchen and He Guiqing, they are still all ministers of the Qing Dynasty, Yang Meng leads but does not send it, they are naturally obedient, once they usurp the country, it is difficult to say what the attitude of these people is.

There are demons in troubled times, and these people led by Zeng Zuo are undoubtedly capable and can be of great use, but on the contrary. These people will also become Yang Meng's most difficult enemies, and the Yang family is powerful. But the strength of the landlords and gentry under the Qing Dynasty is also not small, and the time that the Yang family has been in charge of some places is too short, not seven or eight years or more than ten years, and the solid foundation is just a dream.

The characters of the Yang family occupy the bottom, and the officials of the Qing Dynasty occupy the middle and high-level, this is the current situation of the Qing Dynasty officialdom today, as the high-level of the Yang family, Ding Taichen, Cen Yuying, and Xu Ziwei are still lacking a little bit of background compared with Zeng Zuo's people, if the Yang family's high-level discord, how to deal with the scholars represented by Zeng Zuo in the future?

"The Third Master ......"

"So be it! In terms of your age, you are enough to be Li Xiucheng's master, how about accepting a disciple?

There are some things that Lao Tzu doesn't want to say more, there are some truths, you Xu Jichang knows better than Lao Tzu, what Lao Tzu wants to do, you are clear in your heart, and the overall situation is important! ”

To deal with the army, it is enough to suppress it strongly, but to deal with the officialdom of the Yang family, to suppress it strongly, it will become more and more chaotic, and Xu Ziwei, a villain, is not good to suppress too much.

"I'm afraid he's a white-eyed wolf!"

Xu Ziwei targeted Li Xiucheng, first, out of jealousy, and secondly, out of caution and distrust, which is Xu Ziwei's best weapon against Li Xiucheng.

"White-eyed wolf? Such a person, Lao Tzu has killed a lot, not one of them, you know what to do!

Now at this time, the Yang family can't be chaotic and make up for it! ”

Xu Ziwei's starting point, Yang Meng also understands part of it, not too much suppression of Xu Ziwei, but also out of his distrust of Li Xiucheng, a general is a general after all, not as good as an old brother who fights together.

Compared with the generals who have no small ability, it is also very important for Yang Meng to win over the old men of the Yang family.

"Third master, how can you make up for the loss of the sheep if you don't lose it?"

"Don't drag the text with Lao Tzu, remember! The Yang family can't be messed up!

Inform Taichen and get out of the ironclad ship! ”

Yang pressed Xu Ziwei, Xu Ziwei pressed Li Xiucheng, this is the way to solve the matter, the battle of officialdom is indispensable and cannot be extinguished, and it seems that it is necessary to remove the Yang family from the officialdom.

After talking about the internal affairs of the Yang family, Yang Meng gave another order, looking at the current situation, it is necessary for the ironclad ship to appear on stage.

"Third Master, why is this?"

The ironclad ship has always been the third master's baby bump, so he dispatched it so hastily, Xu Ziwei didn't figure out the deep meaning of the third master, so he had to ask.

"Just give Britain and France a chance to make amends! Li Xiucheng said something right, whether the ironclad ship is good or not, it must also be confirmed by actual combat, all ten ships will be out! Let Guangzhou make the movement bigger! ”

The war needs to continue, and deterrence is also indispensable, and there are some things that Yang Meng feels necessary to do.

"Does the third master want to ask for peace after all?"

After turning Yang Sanye's words in his mind a few times, Xu Ziwei asked a little uncertainly.

"Who knows? Look at the shape shì! The mess in our hands is not small! Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangnan, the three eastern provinces, the northwest, Inner and outer Mongolia, and overseas countries must finally have a solution! ”

Now the stalemate of the Beijing-Tianjin war, the Anglo-French combined fleet on the Bohai Sea, the coastal area south of the Yangtze River that is very vulnerable to attack, the three eastern provinces with many bannermen, the northwest where chaos is frequent, Inner and Inner Mongolia that are about to leave, and the overseas countries that were previously laid out, with Yang Meng's control over the Qing Dynasty getting higher and higher, these messes have also been transferred from the hands of the imperial court to his Yang Meng, and some things are not easy to do!

Taking the initiative to ask for peace, I am afraid that it will not work, taking the opportunity of the defeat of the British and French coalition forces, forcing Britain and France to sue for peace, it is a good choice, but such a thing, I am afraid it is very difficult! Hard!

Who knows whether Britain and France will make amends or fight to the death?

"Third master, this battle is not going to be fought? What about the imperial court? ”

Please make peace, the Qing Dynasty will have a chance to breathe, if you add the new policy implemented by the third master, isn't this just making wedding clothes for others? Xu Ziwei really didn't understand this.

"Give Britain and France a chance to make amends, that is, to continue to fight, Britain and France will not admit defeat lightly, Tsarist Russia has suffered a blood loss this time, and will not give up lightly, if it is forced too tightly, it will be easy for the dog to jump off the wall in a hurry!

We are not yet the opponents of Britain, France and Russia, and if there is a full-scale war, our chances of victory are not great!

But if you choose one of them, we have a great chance of winning, unite with France, deal with England and Tsarist Russia, and let them go in the French army in Zhangjiawan!

It's good that you know these things in your heart, Yan Qing and Li Xiucheng, don't say it too clearly! ”

Yang Meng's analysis of the situation, Xu Ziwei just remembered, but the last sentence made Xu Ziwei, a living monkey, look bright, and sometimes, these words can also reflect intimacy.

"The Competer will do it!" (To be continued......)
